Pro tip: Candy Dreams is also perfect for quilters who love Block Lotto!  In this quilting game, you and your quilting buddies choose a color palette and background color, determine the block size and style, and provide block instructions. Make as many blocks as you desire, and put them in a pool with your friends’ blocks. Then, have a non-partial judge pick a block from the pool. If it’s your block, you win them all!
